Digital Accessibility in a humanitarian context
summary
A UNDP assessment examined Ukraine alert systems and checked a core set of four WCAG criteria across multiple channels (official sites, Facebook, social feeds) instead of auditing individual sites. The evaluation found basic barriers that can prevent people reaching water, food or shelter during bombardment, recommends keyboard navigation and focus management as minimal verifiable fixes, promotes easy-to-read (FAL) content for reuse across channels, and links accessibility gaps to exclusion affecting about 12 million people in France.
